Shoe fits me great. I love the sensitivity, its abilities on overhangs and at the gym.

Ran into an issue with the pull tabs/loops after approx 3 months of owning them - perhaps 20 uses tops at the gym.

Customer Service

Contacted them about the loops and they offered me a discount on my next purchase. Not exactly what I was hoping for as I do not feel I abused the shoes at all, and they saw miniwal wear at that.

First velcro shoe for me. Lots of slippers with similar feel,

Awesome shoe, especially for beginners. I bought it very tight which hurt a bit at first, but after a couple of routes it's great. Works well on overhanging and face IMO.

Never needed.

these shoes are well, what you pay for. i would say they are good shoes but seem to bee to tight in the toe box. the tip of the shoe is too pointed and puts too much pressure on the outside toes, while not enough on the big toe. atleast this is my experiance, although a friend of mine also has a pair and he really likes them for the gym.

Bought these for cruising around Bishop. Awesome little puppies. Great fit, good quality velcro fasteners and perform super well - on the steeps and the vert. For 80 bucks I'm totally stoked! Those guys at Bufo have got things right.

Ok shoe. They wear out way to fast and the sensitivity leaves something to be desired. over all you can find a better shoe for the same cheap price. I normaly buy Cobras and I am going back to them since they last about 6 mo and the spiders lasted 2 before there was a hole in the toe.

This shoe is great. I have had it for the last 3 months and has been very worthy in 2 competitions. Excellent bouldering shoe. I found that they run about a little big compared to other shoes that I have had. One of the best shoes that I have had for vertical climbx. Very good for steep climbs (what i do most). good outdoor shoe

Excellent value. I had recently worn out a pair of 5.10 Spires and was looking to progess to a more sensitive shoe, and thought I'd take chance on the Bufo's. Climbing Mag. had given the Bufo Pharoah's a Bargian Hunter recommendation. After talking to the people at rockshoes they convinced me that the Spider's where a better choice for me. (A lot of gym, it sucks but I live in Michigan, & face climbing, tending more toward trad than sport routes). I went 1 size down from street shoes (tight but not painful) and they have not had much stretching in 2 months of climbing, they are fully lined.
There a very sensitive shoe (which the Spire's are not). They stick to micro-holds. Low cut, so not a lot of protection on cracks. There everything I need for now, about 5.10 climbing. They cost less than anything else I was considering so I can work less and climb more.
